Mixed acetic/tartaric esters of mono/diglycerides

Other names Mixed ester emulsifier, E472F
Mixed acetic/tartaric esters of mono/diglycerides: moderate in salicylate; low in FODMAPs, histamine and nickel. If you're sensitive to any of these, check it against your profile before eating.
Intolerances
- SalicylateModerate
A closely related emulsifier to DATEM, combining acetic and tartaric acids with fats. Same standing on this axis: grouped with additives, not chemically related to salicylate.

- FODMAPsLow
Mixed acetic and tartaric esters is the same chemistry with acetic acid. Fat carries no fermentable carbohydrate.
- Histamine (+liberators / DAO inhibitors)Low
These mixed esters are DATEM's chemistry with acetic acid in the blend, used where a softer crumb is wanted. It is fatty-acid chemistry, not amino-acid chemistry, and histamine comes from the second.

- NickelLow
These mixed esters are the same chemistry as DATEM with acetic acid in the blend, used where a softer crumb is wanted. The nickel, if any, came in with the hardened fat rather than with the acid. For this additive there is no legal nickel ceiling at all.
